Themes: Standing up for beliefs despite the risks, racism, finding one’s voice

~~~This is a great short story of a young Filipino woman standing up and speaking her truth, despite the trouble it may bring.

Interestingly, the story can also be used as a last chapter of Melissa de la Cruz's novel Something in Between.
